Hiiii, if it's not too much, can you describe the biggest differences between the live action characters and the novel characters in MDZS? They are a lot, so I will love even the difference between few of them! I haven't seen the live action and I don't know if I will ever, but I am curious, considering all the meta. Anyway, thank you in general, even if you don't answer!

Hello anon! This has been in the inbox forever because there are soooo many ways to answer this! However, let me be transparent that I've watched maybe like 1/10 of CQL. Among other obstacles, I simply do not care that much about Lan Wangji and he's always there (even though Wang Yibo is giving it his all... it's not his fault I'm a hater...). Chewing through a book with Ms. Mxtx's commentary was just more enjoyable to me, and even then, to be honest, I still liked SVSSS better. (I just love Shen Yuan/Shen Qingqiu so much. That dude is wild.)

Still, the live action definitely affected how I understood certain characters (...primarily Nie Huaisang) and made me interested in relationships that I didn't pay any attention to in the novel. (I freely admit that the nieyao brainrot is 100% CQL's fault.) Also I found Wang Zhuocheng's Jiang Cheng very cute and loveable. It definitely contributed to my Jiang Cheng Brain Disease.

LISTEN. HE HAS BIG SAD EYES AND THE MEANEST SNEER AND HE MIGHT BURST INTO TEARS AT ANY TIME. HE IS A BABY. A baby who could kill you with his terrifying lightning whip! But a baby nonetheless, to me.

So if you want someone with a real and knowledgeable opinion on the live action, I'm probably not the right person for that! However, here's one difference that changed a bunch of stuff about the characters that I found compelling in the novel: the second flautist.

CQL adds Su She as a second flautist doing unorthodox cultivation in a couple of different places, including at Qiongqi Path, where he seizes control of Wen Ning and is therefore responsible for Jin Zixuan's death. Removing the responsibility for Jin Zixuan's death from Wei Wuxian creates a bunch of cascading character and relationship implications that I don't love.

Firstly, all of the people who cautioned Wei Wuxian against his unorthodox cultivation are now... wrong. If he never lost control, then actually his assessment that he could maintain control wasn't overconfidence, it was just true, and he was persecuted because the Jin needed a scapegoat and wanted the Yin Tiger Tally, not because his cultivation path actually involved significant risks and drawbacks. (To be fair, the Jins actively exploited those drawbacks, the public perception of his cultivation, and Wei Wuxian's failure to manage his reputation. But it matters whether the risks exist or are just made up.)

Secondly, removing his responsibility for Jin Zixuan's death transforms both Wei Wuxian's character and how we understand his relationships with Jiang Yanli, Jiang Cheng, and Jin Ling. Because, in the novel, he kills Jin Zixuan under duress but also after a lifetime of conflict with him. Like, he hates the dude, he doesn't think he's worthy of Jiang Yanli, and he's not willing to examine his hatred and resentment even though Jiang Yanli loves Jin Zixuan and wants to marry him, even after she marries him and has a child with him. (I would argue that a lot of the resentment is because of the eventual marriage; by marrying Jiang Yanli, Jin Zixuan becomes legally recognized family to the Jiang siblings, while Wei Wuxian's relationship with them has no social recognition; I think Wei Wuxian is deeply threatened by that but can't articulate it.) It's a huge failure! Like, dude, you loved someone and you killed that person's beloved spouse. That points to a certain degree of repressed jealousy, possessiveness, longing, arrogance, the list goes on... I am so compelled by that conflict, and the adaptation just erases it.

This also affects how we read Jin Ling's relationship with Wei Wuxian. In one scenario, a teenage Jin Ling is (eventually, minus one little stab) ending the cycle of violence by not seeking vengeance for his father's murder. In the other, it was actually someone associated with Jin Ling's paternal family that killed his father, and he's maybe just... coming to terms with that? One of these scenarios is so much richer and more interesting.

How it affects the relationship between Jiang Cheng and Wei Wuxian is a little more subtle. It locates the responsibility for a lot of the harm done to the Jiang siblings with the Jin sect, not with Wei Wuxian, removing some of Wei Wuxian's culpability in the devolution of his relationship with Jiang Cheng. If Wei Wuxian isn't guilty of wronging the Jiang family (and instead is also a victim of the Jin sect), then all of Jiang Cheng's rage and betrayal was misdirected. They were both tricked. In some ways, maybe that's easier to patch up after canon? (I wonder if this is why many CQL yunmeng shuangjie reconciliation fics have Jiang Cheng apologize to Wei Wuxian, but not the other way around?) But it's so much less interesting to me!

Finally, it removes Wei Wuxian's tragic flaw! Dude is legitimately a genius but he's got hubris coming out of his ears and it fucks him up big time! This is classic stuff. Please stop flattening my boy!!

#alas I am outed as a fake CQL fan after all #sorry y'all #I love all the edits though. I am stuffing them into my horrible little mouth every day #I'm the worst kind of fake CQL fan because my brain has fully mashed some of the series I've seen together with the novel events #FINALLY I JUST LOVE...

Lost 4.05 | The Constant

#lost #lostedit #tvedit #lost spoilers #daniel faraday #desmond hume #nikolatexla #my favourite genre is crazy scientists!!! #and my favourite episode!!! i was so hyped after this #i love daniel #i've realized i haven't giffed this episode #cause it needs to be watched every minute is important #giffing is pointless #if i were to describe lost in the weirdest way possible #i'd say 'babies born every season. dont trust dads theyre the worst. lots of daddy issues. #and some scenes you cant understand until the season finale or even series finale

[boasamishipper]

i can tolerate a lot of things from writers and showrunners but outright condescension and disdain for their fans is not one of them

#ted lasso #ted lasso critical #tedbecca #i didn’t like it from rian johnson and i sure as shit don’t like it from the ted lasso showrunners #i didn’t think tedbecca was going to be canon (and honestly didn’t care one way or the other) #(as in my enjoyment of the show was not hinging on tedbecca being canon. i was there for sam dani and nate first and foremost.) #but that 3.12 opening felt very meanspirited for a show that’s all about being curious and not judgmental #like if they felt so strongly about platonic tedbecca and KNEW they would never get together #what was the deal with playing coy when they were asked about that for the last two years #everyone involved could have just shut it down a la tina fey right away and we wouldn’t have this problem #i just don’t like ppl (fans and creators alike) laughing at the tedbeccas for picking up the pieces that the showrunners were putting down! #hunt and sudeikis and everyone in that room basically dangled a carrot for the last two years #and now they’re denying the carrot even existed #which does not sit right with me #also (hot take) but if the finale opened by mocking tedtrent fans and not tedbeccas y’all would (rightfully) be up in arms #the writers are adults and did not need to waste parts of the literal series finale punching down at a section of fans #whose worst crime was being annoying

Mhok deserved so so much better, man

#absolute darling of a character #having to apologise for nothing at all #thanking day for breaking up with him??? #exfuckingscuse me? #last twilight #day was the one who needed to apologise jfc #and where was the addressing of my man’s trauma #oh this finale fucked me up in the worst possible way #last twilight the series #if you can’t tell #I did not like day :D

The BRCU Timelines - A Summary of the Core Overarching Plotline

Pre-BtH Timeline - "Old/Original Timline"

The British Timeline

The Elmer Revolution Timeline

Post-BtH Timeline - "New/Current Timeline"

(Coloured-coded in rainbow order to help remember the timeline occurring order; as in red comes before green, and so does the corresponding timelines, hope this helps!)

1920s - Donna Phitts is born

1971 - Bryce Tankthrust and Bobby Worst are born

2011 - Sebastian Hernandez is born

2018 - Sebastian Hernandez gets a gang sign tattooed on his left arm by the Eldest Elmer in order to continue hiding in his tattoo shop after running away from Helen Brownstein at the beach.

2033 - Blame (Sebastian Hernandez) buys a time machine off of Craigslist in order to travel back in time and tell his past self to change a gang sign tattoo he got as a seven year old. He loses the time machine upon arrival at the beach and after exchanging ownership several times the time machine ends up in the possession of Lord & Lady Mingeworthy, who travel back in time to the year 1865. In 1865, the Mingeworthies are forced to give the time machine to Lucious Cowpussy and Vivian Delongprix, trapping them in 1865. Lucious and Vivian use the time machine to return to 2018, where after exchanging further bouts of ownership returns to Blame, who finally tells his seven year old self to not get the gang sign. Thinking his plan has been a success, Blame returns to 2033 only to find that the displacement of the Mingeworthies from 2018 to 1865 has created a new timeline due to their interferance with historical events; the British timeline.

2033, 1865, 2018 - Blame goes on a fetch-quest through time and space that eventually prevents the Mingeworthies from possessing the time machine in the first place, whilst still allowing the Eldest Elmer (then, known as Tattoo Shop Elmer) to temporarily access the time machine and scheme with Hitler to create the Elmer Revolution timeline.

1942 - The new timeline is created after the death of Elmer in 1942. Thanks to "lime-a-dozen," whose reveal name is revealed to be Donna Phitts, Blame's life is spared after a near-fatal injury and he is subsequently given a new identity as a man named George. George remembers nothing of his past identity and goes on to live with severe cognitive impairment for the rest of his life.

Bryce gives him her robotic heart to resurrect him, and leaves him cardiology books to perform a heart transplant on her using the stolen heart of the man Donovan initially killed.

2016 - A Day At The Park takes place.

#konami please make a dance game with anzu as the main character 🙏 #in my mind the plot of the game would be something like: #everyone visits anzu in NYC while she’s going to dance school #but then they all get forced into dance battles on the street instead of card games #almost everyone in YGO is an uncoordinated super nerd so the skill hierarchy would be completely inverted compared to the DM series #where everyone who really sucked at card games turns out to be ok to good at dancing #and everyone who was amazing at card games is absolute dogshit #the final boss would probably be otogi lol he definitely looks like he’s good at dancing #or maybe it would be pegasus??? he could ballroom dance lol #also i like to think that yugi would be the worst dancer to start with #but with the encouragement of anzu he becomes pretty good #sort of like what yugi did for anzu in DM ❤️ #also im still on hiatus i just can't fucking stop myself from drawing ygo pictures 😭 #yugioh #anzu mazaki #tea gardener #yugi mutou #yami yugi #atem #peachshipping #revolutionshipping #encourageshipping

I think that the worst thought I had following MAG 200 was when I fully convinced myself that Jon and Martin were stuck in an infinite loop of experiencing all of the horrors, reaching the end, dying, and ending up "somewhere else", but somewhere else is just the beginning of the series and they lose their memories each time and do it all over again. Genuinely felt sick over it for multiple days 😭😭😭

#tma #the magnus archives #tma spoilers #martin blackwood #jonathan sims #I think the worst part was when I went 'what if the series wasn't even their first loop?' and then I wept all over again #Please keep in mind that the series finale genuinely made me like....a little extra suicidal for a few days 😭😭😭 #I was NOT dealing and so I just kept convincing myself of worse and worse things #again I was very fortunate to have finished it exactly a week before protocol started #bc then I could just immediately pretend that everything was fine again bc there was more content!! #yippee!!!

[schnuffel-danny]

I’ve seen Phantom Planet like four times just to flex on the people who are too afraid to watch it.

#Also hot take #it's not the worst episode in the series #but it IS a really shitty finale and I don't like it

I Love Hating Lady Anabella

Spoilers for FF16 under the cut.

She's just the worst. She fully buys into the pressures of her role in preserving the Phoenix in the ducal bloodline. She's a horrible wife and mother, seeing her family members as nothing but tools for her own ambitions. She's a horrible ruler, oppressing her own people out of bigoted hatred. She's entirely selfish. She doesn't really have any redeeming qualities.

Her choices and actions drive so much of the plot and character interactions, through her alliances and manipulations and horrific orders, until it all finally comes crashing down around her.

She's fascinating and terrible; she's an excellent human villain in a world of magic, monsters, and gods.

For all Ultima's scheming, he can just leave Anabella unaware to do as she likes and it works perfectly to forward his own goals through her sheer levels of ambitious petty. He's so alien with such ancient, high-level plans, it's hard to relate; he's simply a monstrous god.

But Anabella? We can too often relate, understanding how and why she turned out the way she did, and even understanding the conflicted feelings she elicits in the protagonists, who are all in some way her children (by blood, by marriage, by fostering), even after all her cruelty to them and those they care about.

And sometimes one just needs that catharisis of enjoying an unapologetically awful antagonist, especially when they're finally outmaneuvered and taken off the board--along with the angst that it really doesn't give any comfort or closure to the remaining members of the family she herself shattered.

#Final Fantasy XVI #Anabella Rosfield #character analysis #strong contender for 'worst mom in the FF series' #I haven't gleefully 'hated' an antagonist like this in awhile but from the moment you meet her it's ON #And if your antagonists aren't hateable for all the personal angst they cause the heroes I mean what's the point really #Sometimes supporting womens wrongs means going 'oh my God this Bitch!!' every time she's mentioned or appears on screen

I support the "Batman was unfairly biased to Stephanie for XYZ reasons" crowd so strongly bc DC claims that Bruce is a master planner who is able to understand anyone's psychology but he didn't realize that literally every single one of Steph's problems as a teenager would've been solved by her joining a shitty punk band. If he couldn't figure that much out then he didn't understand her for a minute

#ramblings of a lunatic #PLEASE TALK TO ME I HAVE SO MANY THOUGHTS ON STEPHANIE IN A SHITTY PUNK BAND #her bandmates have turned into ocs it's stage 5 at this point boys #anyway what is steph dealing w/ pre-52 as spoiler that got her in hot water? #1. the anger issues. easily fixed by her getting to scream about beating her dad to death without actually doing it #2. nobody fucking listens to her (including batman). well when u are playing music ppl are definitely fucking listening #3. has no non-batfam friends and thus ends up feeling abandoned almost every time she gets kicked out of the group. bandmates are friends! #don't like being in your shitty house? go to your band mates house and jam! #need to articulate the anger issues in a way that doesn't disturb your frazzled paranoid boyfriend? write angsty songs! #also I do genuinely have a lot of thoughts on how music was applied to Stephanie's character and what it tells us about her #like she loved it. clearly. and she was GOOD at it too. steph is constantly perceived as a screw up and has pretty low opinion of herself #piano was something she could take pride in. in i believe issue 113 of tims og robin series- #-tim is AMAZED at her playing all these years later. so is nocturna a few issues earlier #there's a standard visual language in comics for good or bad music- notation drawn in either shaky or smooth lines #stephs are all smooth and golden. she's good even after all these years of not practicing #but all she says to tim after he compliments her is ''i used to be better...'' SHE SEES THE WORST IN HERSELF AND HER ABILITIES #SHE DESERVES A CHANCE TO FEEL GOOD AT AT LEAST ONE THING LIKE SHE FINALLY GOT TO AS BATGIRL IN HER SOLO #and onto my final point: dinah has several times expressed some degree of fondness/admiration for steph. steph has likewise trained w dinah #and thinks she's cool as fuck. which makes sense. bc dinah is cool as fuck #and what is dinah in??? that's right. a band #steph should join dinahs band for her mental health. this has been an essay #stephanie brown #spoiler dc #dc batgirl #batgirls #<- since that series re-canonized pianist steph!! bless them!
